Another two forms of McBurger.
Festive dip is a slightly spicy tomatoey dip. (No sprouts! )

"McDonald’s is launching an advertising campaign to support the return of its festive menu with a new premium burger, the Festive Deluxe.

The festive menu also includes the Chicken and Bacon Supreme, Cheese Melt Dippers, Festive Pie and the Terry’s Chocolate Orange McFlurry, which is back after a three-year absence.

The Festive Delux is a beefburger with cheese, bacon, red onion rings, Batavia lettuce, a Honey BBQ glaze and a smoky peppered mayo in a square cheese-topped Focaccia bun.

The festive menu launches on Wednesday (24 November) and will be supported with a Christmas themed advertising campaign across TV, outdoor and press."

What is the attraction of Mac anything? I am lost as to why they get air time.

I had a Mcdonald burger and chips and threw it all in the bin after one bite. It was disgusting. The cardboard box was probably the best bit.

If everyone avoided their muck then they would disappear as quickly as Wimpy.

Give you a clue - stop eating the cardboard box. Still have a Wimpy near me

There's a wimpy not too far from me too!
I hate the way people dictate whay we should and should not eat on this forum. I have mcdonalds normally once every 2 or 3 months, the rest of the time I could fresh seasonal produce, make my own bread etc, so why should I forgo that and quite frankly, it's nobody elses business.

Ooh, I don't really like McDonalds (prefer BK!) but I tried one of their festive menus a few years back and it was lovely! Might need a trip to McDonalds soon...

While it's true that it's nobody else's business, this is a forum on which people post their opinions on food. And really, I dont think there is much wrong with saying McDonalds is not nice. You could say you don't think much of Marmite sandwiches, and it wouldn;t bother me as I tucked into my lunch.
Also, some people think that Maccy D and their ilk are morally reprehensible. I'm not sure whether there would be anywhere to express that opinion better than a thread about what is cynically described as food by fast food multinationals?

Ah but your definition doesn't count. Crap food it may be, but it is food.

I thought it was simple, the attraction is that people like the taste.

That's where you're going wrong. Judging it based upon only one experience.

If everyone avoided their muck then they would disappear as quickly as Wimpy.
They won't, because people will pay for what they like, and not avoid things purely because someone like yourself (with limited experience) call it muck.

There's a lot of things I don't like about McDonalds, but there is a place in my diet for it once in a blue moon, it doesn't hurt because I am aware of what is in it and can adjust my diet appropriately once I've had one.

Moderation is all that is needed.

This thread isn't about whether or like you enjoy mcdonalds, it's about their festive menu.

I'm not a McD's fan but I just can't resist their deep fried cheeses. I had the mozzerella sticks during the summer....nom nom nom.

Perhaps you should be telling that to all the people who simply say that they like it, without discussing the festive menu too.
There would be maybe 5 posts remaining, at a pinch. Thats fine with me, but I didn;t realise that there was a rulebook on how far one could discuss the company behind a product on these forums.

Although I agree that the food forum is the place to say whether you like/dislike something, I don't think it is right to judge and sneer at people for enjoying a food you dislike.

And that tends to be the way people who dislike McDonalds/Other Fast Food/Supermarket Packet food/etc. tend to be, I mean the comments might be being misinterpreted and that is a common problem on forums, but as you say cynically described as food - what is cynical about calling food food?

The food might not be the freshest most organic blah blah blah food in the world but it is still food.
